Asap mob, joey badass and flatbush zombies are dope but for some reason NY cats don't support them
Ny is waiting on another 50 cent/jayz type rapper
It's a generational thing. Older heads want another Jay-Z or Fif to lead a bunch of fatherless nikkas to do destructive bullshyt. Plus they hate that crime is decreasing and believe that lack of crime = making people soft
. Can't prosper off of pain and misery.
killed head like its nothing. I can't rep anything in life that I never own. Just principle as a human being.
List of New York companies includes notable companies that are, or once were, headquartered in New York.So you going to add in those companies that used to be based in new york.
And outside of the financial companies just about everyone of them have a corporate office in the dallas area...
A lot of black NYers own homes and cars? Post some stats. Because this one right here shows New York at the very bottom of home ownership states
http://www.bizjournals.com/albany/morning_call/2011/10/new-york-again-at-bottom-of-nations.html
So let me get this straight...New Yorkers have the lowest home ownership rate, but you telling me plenty of blacks own homes? What? How can you have gentrification and have "plenty of blacks own homes" at the same time?
This random link from the new york times says the percentage of people living in poverty in new york is on the upswing
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/19/nyregion/poverty-rate-in-city-rises-to-21-2.html?_r=0
So let me get this straight...you own the least amount of homes...your poverty rate is going up...the gap between the rich and the poor in your state is getting wider...but there are "many opportunities"
You're right, come to think of it there are no opportunities in NYC
people just keep moving here for some reason.
Do you know how many people live in NYC? Who told you there couldn't be gentrification and black home ownership at the same time? Why are you assuming the entire city is being gentrified in one fell swoop? How do you know some of the gentrifiers aren't black themselves? Gentrification is about class not race. NYC has a population of 8 million, even with home ownership at around 31%, that's still a lot of people. So what did you find wrong with me saying alot of blacks own homes?http://www.dominionofnewyork.com/2011/10/05/blacks-buying-more-homes-in-nyc-now-than-10-years-ago/
Can you prove that all of those companies have offices in Dallas? That sounds like quite a general statement. Why didn't you cherry pick this sentence in the first link? This is a list of major corporations headquatered, currently and historically, in New York City, New York.
The only reason jobs move to Texas is because they are allowed to offer cheap labor with weak regulations. Talk that union shyt down there and they will probably run your ass out of town. Enjoy Texas!

They said everything that I could say.

Your broad loves me.....
Something about NY dikk yall can't stay off.
Damn we still got these ny haters tryna shyt on us lmao ... Man who cares about if a coli poster don't own land in ny that don't mean nothin ... Ya still hatin us regardless just because we from ny man ya just mad ur town city whatever will never be mentioned like NYC ..
there is so much that can be cited in this thread...but basically, pertaining to style, culture, hip hop, NY was always on some arrogant shyt. they never anticipated something like the internet coming along to expose people to many different things. NY stayed in a bubble. The entire generation of my family before me migrated to NYC. So, half of my cousins is from from there. When people started to move from NY to other places, the footprint of that style and culture expanded. Dont take this the wrong way, because I love NYC. Growing up I spent a lot of time there and wished I lived there full time.
nikkas showed love, but at the same time it was that arrogance that you were always beneath them. They always equated the south with being slow. It wasnt a good look though that every time a nikka got in some serious beef or drama in the drug game they had to run to the south. I have a cousin who is a famous dude in NYC history who fled to NC. Lived here and went to school with us before he returned to NY and went down in infamy. nikkas was always quick to say "nikkas aint run me outta NY". fukk u doin down here for then? I have quite a few relatives that did that shyt.
As time went on, most of my relatives moved out of NY. They just werent feeling it. It was too expensive, taxes too high, long commutes, not good place to raise kids, etc...They all livin good now and they dont go around shouting out or braggin on NY. They are in a good place and secure with themselves. Weak nikkas used to carry NYC around on their arms as a badge of honor. It spoke to their insecurities.
Lastly, NY nikkas always been about getting money. When the hip hop landscape shifted, NY forsook their creativity in lieu of money but were the quickest to yell sell out before that. I have a long history with NYC. I passed on record deals because labels were already trying to jerk nikkas, on top of that, they really tried to play you if you were from the south (even though back in the 90's, NC nikkas had a NYC sound as far as lyrics and production). Then the fact that NYC kept telling everyone that nobody wanted to hear people from NC. NYC shytted on and held a lot of people back, but in times things evolve and cant stay the same forever.
Fast forward to the present. A lot of the artists I know that signed, some even had gold records.....they not living better than I am. Why, because I was more than music, I am actually a smart dude with many avenues. Growing up, I embraced the NYC style and swag and a lot of it influenced me. As you get older, you tend to be able to distinguish the trivial and superficial. I wouldnt say that people hate NYC. Thats just not true. Most were influenced by NYC in some form or fashion. I just think as a whole NY has been humbled. Yet, you must use humility to learn from and move forward. That is something NY has just not accepted yet.

but see breh, thats why nikkas disrespecting NYC right there because of statements like that. My city will never be mentioned like NYC, but at the end of the day, it dont matter to me. You have to have substance to stand on at the end of the day or it dont mean shyt. Its superficial. I cant eat off of bragging about where I live. I cant get a job based on that. Thats not to single out NYC, but anyone who is doing that for any city/state. We livin good here breh...whether we are born and raised in the south or whether some of us moved back from NYC and retired here. At the risk of being redundant and cliche....it aint where u from....

the same reason nikkas hate on the south jealousy especially you west coast cats funny thing is they don't realize that it makes them look like the bitter ex girlfriends who can't get over the fact that her boyfriend shyt on her as a nikka from the south much respect to New York with out y'all this rap shyt wouldn't be here right now
Dallas must be doing something right...as of Feb 2013 forbes had the city ranked as the best city to find a good job ( aka a job paying well above minimum wage ).
http://www.forbes.com/sites/danielfisher/2013/02/25/texas-dominates-the-best-cities-for-good-jobs/
What is funny is that New York is not on this list...
But I see why...
New Yorker doesn't know the difference between a corporate office and a diner
As if this corporate office is not filled with high paying IT jobs, accounting jobs, business analyst jobs, c level management jobs...
And you clowning Dallas? Especially it's economy? Are you retarded? Again...forbes compiled a list of the top 25 cities in the US as far as economy goes...
http://www.forbes.com/pictures/eddk45edeml/americas-25-best-performing-cities-2/
Where is New York at?
That is another problem with New Yorkers...for all their talk about Bamma's...they are the most ignorant people on earth...nikkas in the south are coming up on land...nikkas in the south are starting to own business...every major corporation is moving their offices down here due to the cheap land, open space, and large number of college graduates...meanwhile, new yorkers out here getting kicked out of their 700 square foot walk in studio cause they can't afford the 1100 a month rent
You're in here talking about "Where New York At?"
SERIOUSLY ???
NYC is a command center in the World Economy breh....
Last time I checked the GDP of the city was 1.1 Trillion.
The closest city to that is LA with a GDP of 800 million....
You're for real about that corporation shyt huh???
Or what about the startup scene here being second behind the Bay Area.
What about the Commercial Real Estate, Architecture firms, Film Production, Fashion and Retail, Publishing Houses, Advertising, Technology, Healthcare, Media, TV and Record Labels, Construction Companies, etc etc. All based here nikka?
Dallas is a regional economy and you seem to have a regionally minded view of things. NYC operates at a global scale every second of the day.
Y'all get excited about a Forbes list and a few new Skyscrapers.... Enjoy that.
